Engineering department internal Apple computer employee lapel pin

The lapel pin is an integral part of the history of Apple computer. In this company the lapel pin is part of the tradition, like a badge, a sign of recognition. The concept of belonging to a group reinforces the cohesion of the group, this lapel pin is a perfect illustration. Other pins also illustrate this group culture. This is the case, for example, of the network of Apple experts in France or proud members of the Apple User group. In the culture of many companies, especially american companies, it is also common to reward employees by offering them a valuable lapel pin. This is the case, for example, with the 18K Golden Apple Club pin that rewarded the best sellers.

The lapel pin, that we propose here, was worned by the members of the engineering department at Apple. Circa early 1990s, in excellent condition and rare. The front represents a yellow computer element on an orange background, the Apple logo in black is on the top left. The back side of the lapel pin bears the manufacturer’s mark. This is an interesting detail, because it allows to authenticate the lapel pin. We note this brand, heart-shaped, on several pins made by this manufacturer on behalf of Apple computer, at the beginning of the 90’s which can attest to its authenticity and its origin.

This lapel pin is in excellent condition.
